Phone is rooted 5.0.2 with twrp.. I can't flash back to stock with smart switch, it gets stuck at 69%.. I've tried odin but that is freezing on my computer.. How can I go about updating to 5.1.1? It's been a while since I've been gone from the android community

Morning,
On one of my phones I would like to accept the OTA update to android 4.4.2 but the phone is rooted. When i go to accept the OTA it boots into team win and wont update(i think). Its the wife's phone and she doesnt really care about loosing root. Can i do the OTA(if so how)? Or is there 4.4.2 that i can flash? Thank you
No it wont install. Return the phone to Stock 4.3 unrooted. Then the OTA will work.
Or simply install the ND8 stock tar as I did.
have a gs3 that was on 4.1.2, it is rooted and had a custom recovery but stock rom. i started the ota update which i assume was 4.4.2 took about 30-40mins to download then not thinking i started the process but failed cause i had a custom recovery. so i used the tool kit and put the stock recovery back on the phone. now i cant get it to show the ota update, just says system up to date. ive tried factory resetting. ive tried changing the date on the phone, all that does it says connecting to dm server. will it not download that update again since it downloaded it once or whats going on? just want the stock 4.4.2 on the phone.

You might try KIES. That's how I upgraded from a rooted stock JB, to stock KitKat (unrooted)
Or follow enewman17's thread in the General section.

have a GS4 m919 which I recently updated to 4.4.4 and since then I've being having troubles connecting to wifi, also bluetooth stop working. Can you give me some ideas on how to solve this problem
Try a factory reset
i do this :C:crying:
I remember seeing something that it is a known issue with the update. Try a factory reset or reinstalling with keis

You can downgrade with a custom ROM, but you can't Odin back to an earlier bootloader
Hello guys, I have issue with GPS and 4G network, I have 5.0 official Lollipop flashed with Odin and I want to go back on KitKat 4.4.2 to update it again on Lollipop via OTA. Cause first time when I have done it from 4.4.2 to 5.0 via OTA everything worked great. Can anyone help me with tutorial?
I have MM stock, but the hotspot now requires a reboot to get it working which is kinda a pain. Can I use this method to flash back to Lollipop? I saw a thread saying you cannot flash anything older than 5.1.1. That was an older thread, and basically he was told he can't flash 5.0.2 back on his S6 because he already had 5.1.1. Is there anything that will break if I put 5.1.1 after taking OTA 6.0.1?
thanks
Not sure but I am going to flash 5.1.1 now and see what happens, I loaded MM on my phone and it sucks down my battery so fast, I lost 20 percent in like 15 minutes, I have nothing on the phone but the OS so I am going back somehow will let you know. I go all day on battery on 5.1.1 so MM can wait.
<Back after flashing with odin>
Okay this worked but I set in odin to "NAND Erase ALL" and it worked I am back on 5.1.1
did either of you roll back to 5.1.1 without having to root? I don't want to void the rest of my warranty.

yes, odin the OL1 tar file, reboot to stock recovery, factory reset and you could boot into 5.1.1 without root.

Thanks for your reply.
aw darn, guess I am stuck factory resetting for now. Is there any way I can stop sprint from forcing this update again?
Also will it keep the newest radio if I flash the tar back to 5.1.1.?
i remember there was an option in system>update that prevent the phone from updating itself. im on MM 6.0.1 now so i cant have a ss.
when you odin the tar 5.1.1, the radio change back to 5.1.1 as well (you ask about baseband version? if im not wrong).
